Resending to the group, since this might be of general interest. -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Re: [Therion] Fedora 42 xtherion will not start Date: Mon, 21 Apr 2025 14:36:16 -0500 From: Bill Gee <bgee@campercaver.net> To: Stacho Mudrak <lists@group-s.sk> Hi Stacho - No luck. I included below a directory listing of the bwidget package directory, if that helps. There are multiple tcl directories on the system. tcl8.6 is the directory used by the Fedora 42 package. It is the only one of the tcl directories that has anything regarding bwidget. Unfortunately, I no longer have a Fedora 41 system to compare. I do have a system running X instead of Wayland. That system also has Therion 6.3.3. It shows the same results, which is what I expected. ===================== bgee@main2:~$ wish % package require BWidget can't find package BWidget % package require bwidget can't find package bwidget % bgee@main2:~$ ll -d /usr/share/tcl* drwxr-xr-x. 5 root root 4096 Feb 1 18:00 /usr/share/tcl8 drwxr-xr-x. 7 root root 4096 Apr 19 14:57 /usr/share/tcl8.6 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Apr 19 14:58 /usr/share/tcl9 drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Apr 19 14:58 /usr/share/tcl9.0 bgee@main2:~$ dir /usr/share/tcl8.6/bwidget1.9.7/ arrow.tcl dialog.tcl images listbox.tcl panelframe.tcl scrollview.tcl tree.tcl bitmap.tcl dragsite.tcl init.tcl mainframe.tcl passwddlg.tcl scrollw.tcl utils.tcl buttonbox.tcl dropsite.tcl labelentry.tcl messagedlg.tcl pkgIndex.tcl separator.tcl widget.tcl button.tcl dynhelp.tcl labelframe.tcl notebook.tcl progressbar.tcl spinbox.tcl wizard.tcl color.tcl entry.tcl label.tcl pagesmgr.tcl progressdlg.tcl statusbar.tcl xpm2image.tcl combobox.tcl font.tcl lang panedw.tcl scrollframe.tcl titleframe.tcl ===================== Update! I did a bit more poking around and discovered I have two different versions of tcl installed. They are 8.6 and 9.0. bgee@main2:~$ ll /usr/bin/tclsh* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Feb 1 18:00 /usr/bin/tclsh -> tclsh9.0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Feb 1 18:00 /usr/bin/tclsh8 -> tclsh8.6 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 11728 Feb 1 18:00 /usr/bin/tclsh8.6 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 11720 Feb 1 18:00 /usr/bin/tclsh9.0 If I start tclsh8 and then do "package require BWidget" it responds with a proper version number. Running tclsh9 fails. =============== Bill Gee On 4/21/25 13:50, Stacho Mudrak wrote:
If you just run wish and try to import the bwidget package, does it work?
On my system:
user@localhost:~$ wish % package require BWidget 1.9.14

I compiled Therion while still on Fedora 41. Should I recompile?
